A member asked:

Shortness if breath upper back pain tightness in chest fighting a sinus infection. also haven't felt like this since the last time i had bronchitis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Needs treatment: Have you been on antibiotics yet? If it feels like there are problems with your chest, i would get checked out to make sure it's not more that just the sinuses. Maybe it is bronchitis or a viral chest infection (cold).
